Part 4


It's called Killing Us Softly. It has to do with how women are portrayed in advertising. (It does have some adult language and images)



I'd simply like you to:



1. Summarize the the problem the presenter identifies. Do you agree with the presenter, or are the problems exaggerated?

2. What are the effects on women & girls (and boys)?

3. Does the speaker bring up any points you hadn't noticed or thought about before? Why do you think this was?

4. What is your response? What should be done, if anything?
